Hi all,

I'm having some trouble getting xen 3.0.2 setup on my AMD 64 running Ubuntu. I've been digging through google, but haven't had any luck finding an answer. I tried using the pre-compiled bin first, but since I have nvidia sata it didn't work and crashed right away. So I recompiled using the linux-defconfig_xen0_x86_64, marking 'y' for the SATA_NV option. I rebuilt the kernel installed everything and tried to boot again. Now it can see the nvidia sata but when it tries to mount the system on root it fails with this message:

Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1)

here is my setup for grub:
title           Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic Default
root            (hd0,4)
kernel          /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet splash
initrd          /initrd.img

boot

Any ideas what I might be missing that would be causing this problem?

Thanks
